Bucchigiri?! episode 9 recap
In the previous episode, Shindo was taken aback when he found out that Ichiya transferred to Matakara. But for Ichiya, it was a natural decision, as he always preferred a more powerful host. Moreover, he was drawn to the profound darkness within Matakara.

Matakara only went home once after that. There, he was greeted by Komao and Zabu, who had brought food to cheer him up. However, Matakara simply took his savings and left without a word. Along the way, he encountered Arajin, but due to the latter's own reluctance, they did not talk, and Matakara continued on his journey.
At the Honki shrine, where Matakara had sought sanctuary, he found himself plagued by a shadow. Ichiya explained to him that the shadow represented his inner weakness and his desire to flee. He suggested that by accepting him, Matakara could eliminate the shadow creature, but Matakara, who had always struggled to overcome his weakness, remained skeptical.
Ichiya further insisted that Matakara should distance himself from others because friends only offer solace to the weak and are of no use to those striving to become Honki People. He also pointed out that Matakara's weakness was largely due to his dependence on Arajin, who, therefore, needed to be defeated.
The following day, while Arajin was heading for a bath, Senya mentioned that Arajin and Matakara reminded him of himself and another individual with whom he had trained to become Honki People. This individual was Ichiya, with whom Senya had trained since childhood. However, he did not finish the story, leaving out the reason for their falling out.

Next, Arajin was challenged by Matakara, and they engaged in a brief fight, which ended when Arajin surrendered, and Matakara also retreated. Ichiya noticed that Matakara's kindness prevented him from finishing off Arajin. Thus, that night, Ichiya kept provoking Matakara, taunting his weakness. It seemed that Ichiya could possess Matakara once the latter was enraged.
In the meantime, Arajin met up with Shindo and learned that Senya intended to possess his body.
What to expect from Bucchigiri?! episode 10? (speculative)
Being an entirely original anime production, and as such, a precise synopsis of the upcoming episode is not available. However, based on the events at the very end of the previous chapter, viewers have some insight into Ichiya's plans for the future.
While dismissing Shindo, he hinted at his ability to possess his host, which might explain his interest in Matakara. On the other hand, it will be interesting to see how Arajin responds upon learning that Senya also intends to possess him.
